So here we are with yet again an AMD Socket A roundup. Last time in December 2003 we saw that the field was dominated by the Thermalright SP-97 heatsink which sports heat pipe technology. Nowadays a lot of manufactures have caught up and we have a wide variety of heatsinks available which are based upon the successful heat pipe tech. Letīs find out if they can beat our Golden Oldie

I heard some complaints about the DP-102, being quite a risky job to install (lots of core crushing going on...)
Is this true? If yes, what could you recommend I do to avoid my core being crushed?
(Also a Barton 2500+ @ 2004mhz I might add)
